Looking to, maybe, buy some nice large wooden salad bowls for my daughters for Christmas. I would need 3. Show me what you have and how much?
 
When you say "large" what does that mean to us non Texans? Do all three need to be basically the same, or would a variety of sizes, shapes, and woods suffice? And would you possibly be interested in rough turned bowls that you could finish yourself?

I can definitely deliver on the rough turned bowl blanks. The picture is old but representative of some of what I have on hand. Finished bowls would depend upon your answers to the first two questions.

Steve, I'm looking for finished bowls. They do not need to be the same woods. Not even from the same creator. I would like for them to be basically the same size, shape can differ. For you non-Texans what you are showing there I would consider pinch bowls. JK. I'm looking for bowls big enough to put a salad in that everybody takes their individual salads from. If that makes sense? I just went and measured a plastic bowl I have that's about right. Top rim ~11.5" height ~5"

Got it. I figured an 11" - 12" bowl would be a cereal bowl for you all!

Unfortunately I don't have any that size that are already finished. And I'm not sure I could get any done and delivered by the week of Christmas. Sorry, and good luck with the search!
 
I may have something . Will take a look and see. To be clear, I’m assuming you’re wanting food safe and easy care finish like walnut oil.
 
Barry, these are coming your way! Hope you enjoy, and I totally understand if the NIP doesn’t end up as a gift!
